Landscape holds a central place in Susan Isaac's art and she is fascinated with the way landscape is animated by the life contained within it. In this series of ceramic sculptures, people take on landscape forms, so that her dream-like heads and figures, many in repose, emulate landscapes through their undulating contours.

In her sculptural work Susan uses clay to express ideas in a very immediate, almost primal form. The plastic nature of the clay, its tactility and its directness allows her to work very quickly in drawing out these ideas. She uses relatively simple finishes, particularly oxides rubbed and drawn into the surface to enhance texture and detailing, emphasising the intention behind each piece.
